360 Laser Distance Sensor LDS-01 is a 2D laser scanner capable of sensing 360 degrees that collects a set of data around the robot to use for SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) and Navigation.

The LDS-01 is used for TurtleBot3 Burger, Waffle and Waffle Pi models.

Run

The data of the LDS-01 can be used on the embedded board like OpenCR and Arduino, and it can be confirmed on the LCD as a graph like below.

Preparations

It does not provide a dedicated interface board, but you can connect it to the power and UART of the embedded board as shown below.

OpenCR develops and downloads firmware through the Arduino IDE. Therefore, you must install the Arduino IDE in advance and install the OpenCR board package. Install through the following link document.
